Roof construction question

Was on the roof yesterday and noticed that the roof sheathing joints are not on top of a truss. As I stepped near a joint, the sheathing bowed down at least 1/4-1/2 inch. Has anyone else noticed this? Or is this another build issue I need to address? While I'm thinking of it, the trim joints on my windows and hatch doors are on the top! I would think they'd be on the bottom to reduce the risk of water entry. Where are they on other units?

Don,
I think my roof is the same. (I'm up there a lot) I think that is normal.
